Bhaktapur Day Tour

Bhaktapur Day Tour Overview

A typical Bhaktapur day tour entails visiting the city’s ancient buildings and temples, trying out the cuisine, and learning about the rich cultural legacy of the region. The following is a sample schedule for a day trip to Bhaktapur:

Morning:

See the city’s biggest attraction, Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a world UNESCO Heritage site first thing in the morning. Many temples, pagodas, and palaces, including the Golden Gate and the 55-Window Palace, can be found here. Spend some time studying the complex sculptures and carvings while also learning about the local history.

After touring Durbar Square, stop by the adjoining Taumadhi Square to see the Nyatapola Temple, one of Nepal’s highest structures at five stories. For a sweeping perspective of the city, ascend the stairs to the summit.

Visit one of the area’s many street food sellers for a bite during your break. Consider trying some regional favorites like lassi, Chatamari, or Bara (lentil pancakes) Juju Dhau (a yogurt-based drink).

Afternoon:

Visit the Pottery Square to see potters producing traditional clay pots and other objects while they work. Even trying your hand at producing your ceramics is an option.

The Dattatraya Temple, a three-story pagoda and one of the oldest in the city, is the next stop. The temple is embellished with beautiful wood carvings and brasswork and is devoted to the Hindu god Vishnu.

Visit the Bhairavnath Temple, a vibrant pagoda honoring the ferocious Hindu god Bhairav, as your last stop in the Bhaktapur Day Tour. An active market area surrounds the temple where visitors can browse for trinkets or relax with a cup of tea at a neighborhood tea shop.

Evening:

In one of Bhaktapur’s many restaurants, round off the day with a typical Newari meal. Enjoy Nepali foods like Aaloo Taama, Bara (lentil pancakes), and Choila (spicy grilled beef) (a curry made with potatoes and bamboo shoots).

Overall, a day trip to Bhaktapur is a fantastic chance to learn about the city’s history, culture, and cuisine. Also, if you have an extra day before or after a long adventure in Nepal, then you can visit Bhaktapur for a day tour to know about its rich culture and history.
